Huh. Me too. That and Food Wishes. And Kruggsmash plays Dwarf Fortress.

Oh and also SaveAFox.

Both are true. There’s this bit in Lord of the Rings where Sam looks up at the night sky and thinks, even if Sauron wins the stars will still be beautiful up there. And that gives him some peace, allowing him to then refocus on the grim necessities back on the ground.

If humanity ruins itself there are probably other planets with life. But I love America and humanity; I’m rooting for them.

An even better example is when Sam & Frodo come across a statue vandalized by the orcs. The head had been knocked off and replaced with a boulder painted with a leering face.

But Frodo points to the head on the ground now wreathed with a crown of white flowers.

"They can't win forever." he assures Sam.

There is nothing inherently moral about gazing into the abyss, and nothing inherently immoral about stepping back to preserve your own sanity.

Choose radical optimism! The last few years have brought some hidden problems to the fore, where they can be dealt with.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

Life will suck, but we will get through this.

Well, we’ve made ourselves feel better with LOTR and Dune references. Any good Star Trek and Star Wars ones so we can win the internet?

THERE ARE.... FOUR.. LIGHTS

nice, the site doesn't stop you from double posting anymore

Much like Limbaugh claimed that humans have as much effect on the environment as jumping up and down has on the Earth's orbit.

You Republican shill.

Kind of shitty how you, personally, didn't prevent the election of Donald Trump, Nominal. Get off your ass, geez.

hey ashtar you know what i hear on good authority DOES change the tilt of the earth's axis?

(hint: it's throwing bottles of piss!)

Just imagine how many piss bottles we could have bought with the $40 million dollars given to the Lincoln Project (more republicans voted for Trump than 2016) or the $80 million given to Amy McGrath (who lost by 20 points). Tell me, teethsalad, which do you think would be the better use of money?

Oh, and so far Repubs are on track to not lose a single senate seat, while gaining 2 in the house.

it is 2:48 am Pacific and things are certainly not going well enough. I'm sympathetic to the arguments that Biden is a zombie who won't change things enough, but I'm more sympathetic to the arguments that Trump is a fucking Nazi, so Biden needs to win.

Right now I'm reading that the senate did not flip and the house did not surge, which is close to being as important as the predictably nail-biter prez run itself.

Basically, people who won't wear a fucking mask to the grocery store are deciding this election. WORST APOCALYPSE EVER. I'm always depressed, but right now I'm also unhappy.

Can we officially declare polls useless at this point?

Jesus christ, even Prop 22 passed in California with 58% of the vote.

What the FUCK is wrong with people?

Americans are dumb and gullible.

Uber outspent the unions on prop 22 by like a factor of 10.

Buy enough lying ads and you can win almost any election in America (see also national races, dumbass Cubans in Florida, etc)

Prop 22 was so awful, I can't even imagine how it would be spun into something the popular majority of FUCKING CALIFORNIA would be for it. Jesus christ, even goddamn Mississippi voted to ditch the Confederate flag.

My only solace this morning is that the "right to repair will let rapists break into your home" people didn't get their way.
